FRENCH CLAIMS. A meeting of claimants under the conventions entered into by the French and English Governments, for indem nifying the subjects of the latter for losses sustained by them, by the confiscation of British property in France, in 1793, was held yesterday, at the British Coffee House, Cockspur-street. The Hon. W. Spencer Ponsonby, M.P., in the Chair. The nature of the claims was explained to the meeting in a written statement, which was read by the Secretary. This document traced their origin from the first confisca tion of British property and debts in France by the French in 1793, through the various conventions by which their losses were recognised, money set aside, and actually paid for their discharge by the French to the British Govern ment, to the last acts of the Treasury with respect to the distribution of these funds. The present claimants con sisted of those or their representatives who had been shut out by the shortness of time from originally putting forward their claim, but the justice of which has been ac knowledged by successive Governments. The meeting agreed to the following resolutions, which explains the ob jects it had in view : " That this meeting, consisting of various claimants, or their representatives, on the unappropriated residue of the funds provided by the G o vernment of France for the li quidation of the claims of British subjects, feels called upon to express its dissatisfaction at the manner in which the claims on that residue have hitherto been dealt with. That whilst the minute of' the Lords of his Majesty's Treasury of the 15th of March, 1833, led the claimants to expect that a just and equitable distribution of the said residue was about to be made without loss of time ; more than three years have now elapsed, in which little has been done, further than to wrest the terms of the said minute from their fair construction, and to disappoint the just hopes and expectations of the claimants in almost every case that has been brought under consideration. That a petition to the House of Commons be presented, con veying the foregoing resolutions, with a view to obtain a Select Committee to investigate the subject and all mat ters connected' therewith." The petition was then read and agreed to. And the Hon. Chairman undertook to present it forthwith, Mr. M‘Kinnon having given notice of a motion, to inquire into these claims, for to-morrovr night, upon the House going into a Committee of Supply. A vote of thanks was then passed to the Hon. Chairman for his ccnduct in the chair, and the meeting separated. It was stated that near 200,000/. of the fund is still unappropriated. JOINT STOCK BANKS. O w ing to the- slow progress made by the committee on Joint-stock Banks, and the little that transpires of the proceedings, an impression prevails in the City very generally that nothing material will be done in the present session. Great difference of opinion exists as to the restraints to which these establishments ought to be subjected, but all, except those who have a direct interest in them, agree that they ought to be very strict and severe, if it is meant to afford any protection to the public from the consequences of their deviation from the right path. One condition strongly insisted upon is, that the capital should not be merely a nominal one, but that the whole should be paid up within a fixed period. This is a practice• growing into use already in the better class of banks of the United States. Some notices are now circulating here of the formation of new banks ,in the southern states, which require the whole capital to be paid up within 18 months. Another is to fix a maximum proportion to the capital, in the case of banks of issue, for the circulation of notes. The American banks are not to be held up in general as models for imitation ; but in this respect, also, some judicious regidatiops are beginning to be adopted. If to these were added a prohibition against the issue of notes of less value than .5/., or perhaps 10/., it seems to be admitted, as regards the fiscal part of their arrange ments, that joint-stock banks could do no great harm. There are still, however, other objections to be met with —for example, on the score of influence, which may be in some instances misapplied, and do as much harm to a community, though in another way, as by the mal-admi histration of pecuniary concerns. The National Bank of Ireland, in the manner in which it is conducted by O'Con nell and his agents, is a striking proof of this, of which public notice has already been taken ; and we have heard it affirmed that - institutions of the same kind are to he met whsh in England, though the misdirection is not so much of a political as of a religious or sectarian kind. It is cer tain that a Board of Directors having so much capital to be disposed of at pleasure, in whatever part of the country they may be placed, do possess an enormous power, which is capable, like all other power, of being abused or per v'ertefl. There is oi:e point which we have not heard ad. veiled to, in which these establishments required to be curbed, and that is in the great extension of branches, to sshich there is at present no limit. These branches may all grow up to be as important as the principal bank, and thus 40 or 50 banks may spring out of one charter, which is obviously absurd, as well as dangerous. Soma limitation of distance, and also of the number of branches that may be formed, seems indispensable to all sound legislation on the subject. Other opportunities will, however, present themselves from time to time for further discussion of this important subject. Some of the managers of the large joint-stock banks in the country have been examined before the Committee, and they are said to have objected, on behalf of those whom they represent, to make the disclosures with respect to circulation and deposits, and other matters, which will be required of them, unless private persons engaged in banking ore subjected to a similar inquisition. This is a manifest evasion of the question, for tLe Government can possess no power in this respect over the actions of private individuals. It is only when a charter of incorporation is applied for, that they are in a situation to make conditions ; and they :in - - , enabled also to enforce them by introducing a clause of forfeiture into the charter in the event of non-compliance. ing Paper, SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

'>'.j;t • ~: ~~ ~; ,~„~ r r ) XL LONDON', FRIDAY EVENING. JULY 13, 1836. The CHANCELLOR of the EXCHEQUER has fixed the Ist of September for the reduction of the Stamp Duty on Newspapers to come into operation. It is evident from the division which took place last night in the House of Commons, on bringing up the Report of the Established Church Bill, that the mea sure is by no means popular with the Reformers, and would have been thrown out, had it not been for the apt interposition of Sir R. PEEL and his party. We do not wonder at• the unpopularity of the Bill, for it is far more Tory than Liberal in its character ; pro fessing mach, performing little, and providing for the pecuniary wants of the Bishops—under the pretence of reducing their incomes—with a lavish munificence that must throw his Grace of CANTERBURY, and his Lordship of LONDON into fits of grateful extacy. But the great—the Radical defect of the Bill is, that it commences its Reforms at the wrong end. Instead of first consulting the wants of the working clergy, it con sults those of the Episcopal Bench. It repairs the tinsel ornaments, while it takes little or no heed of the foundation of the ecclesiastical edifice. Now we contend that the measure should have proceeded on just the reverse principle. It should have looked first to the working clergy, for it is this industrious, devout, ill-rewarded class of men who keep religion alive in the hearts of the community. It is not the loridly Bishop " clothed in purple and fine linen, and faring sumptuously every day," like Dives in the parable, who lives on equal terms with his flock ; mixing himself up with all their little interests ; enlightening them by his knowledge ; influencing them by his example ; and making them better men, better Christians, and consequently better citizens ;—it is not the Bishop who ever acts in this manner ; he is never seen praying by the death-bed of the poor man, and braving pestilence in his anxiety to save the souls and bodies of the flock committed to his charge. No, it is the poor, hard-working clergy man , who is the very corner-stone of the Church establish ment, its proudest ornament, its firmest support ; and with this class of men, therefore, the Reform measure should have set out. It should have first raised their incomes, and then in the same proportion have reduced those of the Episcopacy. Unfortunately, however, it has commenced with what its supporters call an abridgement of the revenues of the Bishops, but which in reality leaves these apostolical martyrs pretty nearly as rich and quite as politically influential, as it found them. Now this, we say, is a crying sin in a measure which professes to be one of sound Reform. No wonder, therefore, that the Tories are enraptured with it. It has a strong t a int of Peel-ism about it ; and accordingly the Right Hon. Baronet pets, and cherishes, and hugs it in his arms, just as if it were the lawfully begotten of his own loins. " He apprehended," he observed, " that the Bill proceeded on the principle that the Bishops were to continue to sit in the House of Lords ;" and upon this he grounded his assumption that their reve nues were not a whit too much reduced. Surely there can be no greater sarcasm on the Bill than praise like this Why should the Episcopal Bench be left in the enjoyment of a most preposterous salary, expressly in order that they may have in their power to play over again, in the House of Lords, the same slippery tricks they played during the discussion of the Reform Bill ? Is this Whig, or is it Tory, Reform ? Really we are more than half inclined to suspect that the Bill is an emanation of Conservative sagacity. Again, Sir R. PEEL observed, " four thousand five hundred a year might be an abundant income in one bishopric, while in another it would hardly be more than sufficient to provide for the ordinary claims on the benevolence of the Diocesan." Now, if we are to pay for episcopal benevolence—a very ambiguous phrase—it is but right that we should have value received for our money—that is to say, that we should have certificates that the sums which we consign to a Bishop for a specific purpose, have really and bona fide been applied to that purpose. We urge this the more strongly, because we have heard of Rev. Prelates who, though paid for years upwards of ten thousand per annum, for pur poses of " benevolence"—we have Sir ROBERT PEEL'S authority for saying that a great portion of an Episcopal revenue should be applied in such a manner —have given away as little in charity, as the poorest curate on their see. Now this should be guarded against, if only on the Scriptural principle that " from him to whom much is given; much will be required ;" and accordingly, though we may be rather heterodox in our suggestion, we propose that as we cram the episcopal pockets with the Mammon of unrighteous ness, so we should have bona fide evidence that the wealth thus lavished on our Prelates has not been wholly devoted to their own personal interests. Sir R. PEEL went on to scout the idea that Bishops would de sire translation from a mere love of filthy lucre, "he could not (he said) join in such extravagant notions of the corruption of human nature." Amiable enthusiast ! What a sweet, simple, confiding soul it is ! Altoge ther we look on this Church Reform Bill as the very worst article of home manufacture that has yet been turned out of a Whig workshop : " Its faults are a thousand, its virtues are one." And that one is—effrontery ! If it had no other defect, still its leaving an Archbishop in the full, un controlled possession of fifteen thousand per annum, would be quite enough to cover it with ignominy. But it has other faults. It is a compromise with Toryism —a sop to Cerberus. These are harsh words to use, but our duty to the people leaves us no alternative. We respect Ministers for what they have already done —we respect them for what they are still willing to do —we believe them to be sincere, and we know them to be the best set of men we ever had to rule over us ; still we cannot shut our eyes to the fact that in this particular measure, Toryism and Episcopacy united have fairly cowed their spirits ; made them vacillate where they should have been decided ; and halt where they should have boldly marched forward. The annual Punch-and-Judy-exhibition of fana ticism, bigotry, and impiety, took place at Exeter-Hall yesterday. • The Judy of last year played Punch on this occasion ; for, unfortunately, poor Punch is suf fering so severely from repletion of " the good things of this world," that he could not cross a crupper to save the souls of all the Papists in the universe. In the absence of the great " O'MULLIGAN," M'GUEF, Cut but a sorry figure, though the ladies—kind, consi derate, melting souls !—waved their white cambrics, and all but drowned the poor parson with showers of eau de cologne, and other sweet smelling waters. The only amusing part of the rant was the exordium. IVI'G HEE stood . up, and with the coolest ef frontery in the world, assured the Meeting thaz his former statements had been denounced by Priests—abjured by Bishops—disclaimed by Se nators—ridiculed and confuted by the Press—and made the theme of general censure by poets and prose writers ; yet there he stood to re-assert all that he had ever asserted—to give the lie direct to priests, bishops, senators, editors, poets, anti essayists I And what said the fanatics to this declaration ? Were they indignant at being made the dupes of an itinerant Irish buffoon, who dared to treat them as if they were a parcel of bedlamites ? Did their Chairman call the audacious calumniator to order? Oh, no ! The ruffianly declaration was received with shouts of ap plause, and the ladies screamed—actually screamed with delight--at the idea of having a parson amon, them ill-mannered enough to give the lie to the whole Catholic Hierarchy of Ireland. An occurrence took place during the meeting which need only to be noticed to convince English Men that the spirit of " fair play" the boast of this country, is a stranger to fanatical bosons. During the delivery of M‘GITEE'S tirade against Catholics and Catholi cism, a Catholic Gentleman. who was present appealed to the Chair for permission to refute the calumnies heaped upon himself and luls creed, when there Was a shout raised of " Turn him. eta! Turn him out and the Chairman told him that if he dared to address the Nlceting, he would order Lim into the custody of the police ! The fanatics refeise to allow Roman Catho lics to defend themselves 'by a single word, and yet they can reconcile it to theiir consciences to rail against them by the hour. Does not this look very like the consciousness of having to support a bad cause ? "We will allow the Romanists to defend them selves," say the fanatics, " provided they come armed with the authority of their bishops, other wise we will not hear them." Who authorized them to exact such credentials ? Have they them selves any to show to prove that they represent the Protestant Hierarchy, or the ministers of any Chris tian communion ? They demand as a qualification from Catholics what they know that no Catholic ever obtained; and yet they dare to become the assailants— to diffuse the spirit of bigotry—to disseminate lies— to calumniate and slander individuals without being able to produce the shadow of an authority in support of their pretensions to a communion with the English Hierarchy. Did they not fear that the Catholic gen tleman who offered himself to the Meeting would be an over-match for the Milesian Punch of the day, and so spoiled the sport, they would have heard him without questioning the episcopal divinity of his mission. But the vagaries of the Protestant Association at Exeter-hall are as nothing when compared with the " fantastic tricks" of its co-labourers the " friends of the Established Church" in Liverpool. M'GHEE is a mere jack-pudding, a sort of puppet-show merry- Andrew, when placed in juxta-position with such. REEVE-and-LisToN-like performers as JONATHAN BROOKS, A. CAMPBELL, and HUGH M'NEIL. Where is there a sentence in all the nonsense ever spouted by Parson M'GHEE containing a tithe of the fiery ardour of the following, from a speech of Parson CAMPBELL, delivered in Liverpool on Wednesday last, and which we extract from the orthodox columns of Old Granny :—" I view the Church as the candle which lighted the fires of LATIMER and RIDLEY, and GoD forbid that that candle should ever be extin guished 1" There is religion for you in its orthodox form There is a Parson's commentary upo❑ the meek precepts of the gospel of peace, charity, and brotherly love ! Parson INVNEIL was not behind his reverend compeer in making his auditory acquainted with what the Church regarded as the quintessence of Christianity. " I am grieved to say," patheti cally observed the reverend gentleman, " that the tone in favour of Protestantism which was heard some years ago is greatly relaxed, and that thereis not that glorious burst of feeling in favour of the Protestant religion which led to the fires of Smithfield !" Cheers followed this audible groan of the ecclesiastical spirit, which in their turn gave way to a flood of tears at the dismal prospect of uninterrupted harmony between Catholics and Protestants. In fact, without a re-kindling of the fires for the consuming of he retics and unbelievers, the pillars of the Church in Liverpool are becoming seriously apprehensive that the sacred fabric will shortly tumble about their ears. This alarm has increased, owing to the liberal and truly enlightened spirit which has pervaded all the measures adopted by the New Town Council. One of these has been the establishment of schools on the plan adopted by the Irish Board of Education, with a view to extend the blessings of early instruction to the chil dren of every creed. As soon as this liberal proposal was made, the Church bigots caught the alarm, and the Meeting of Wednesday was called to protest against the conduct of the Town Council, and to raise funds for establishing schools on the old exclusive system. Unless the Parsons have their own way, they threaten to leave the schools unattended, and to induce the old schoolmasters to resign their situations. Let them carry their threat into effect, and it will be seen in the end who will be the sufferers. There is no want of parsons or schoolmasters to remedy the threatened turn-out in Liverpool—a precedent for " striking "of which the mechanics ought not to be unmindful on a future occa- SIM). An interesting debate took place last night in the House of Lords, on the bringing up of the Report of the Prisoners' Counsel Bill. This measure was opposed by Lord WHARNCLIFFE, for reasons the most futile that can well be imagined, while it was defended by Lord LYNDHURST with great eloquence, and with a momentary appearance of feeling, which led the House to believe that the Learned ex-Chancellor was really in earnest. This very unsteady person has been till now the bitterest opponent of the just and humane change which the Government have endeavoured to effect in the law. He has on this as on almost every other question, proved how well he can speak on both sides. But though we cannot give him credit for any very pure or lofty motive in espousing the right side on this occasion, we are glad that he has done so, because his advocacy will be a passport to the Bill through the Upper House, where alone there was any difficulty with regard to it. The mis-leading journal of Europe has this morn ing volunteered its services to mislead the Government. After an appeal to the honour of Ministers, and a honied address to the " really honourable men among their supporters," the arch-renegade coaxingly implores the members of the Cabinet to send in their resignations ! This is modest. The Times, the Carlton Club, the Peers, a gang of petticoated courtiers, the Protestant Association, and the collected fragments of the snowed up-Conservative majority in the Lower House, have all been beaten in a contest with Ministers ; and now the victors are prayed to confess themselves van quished, and to retire from a field which they have made their own ! This is a new mode of ousting a Cabinet. But were the Ministers to resign to-mor row, who is there to succeed them ? Sir ROBERT PEEL could not retain office an hour after the re-as sembling of Parliament, and we believe that even the Times will admit the Right Hon. Baronet to have more influence than the whole Conservative Club and Press put together. But we think we understand the real object which the Times has in view, in thus pressing the question of an early resignation upon Ministers. Our Contemporary has been in structed to hint that the Tories would be content to remain in place during the recess, while to the Whigs might be left the management of the House of Com mons ; and thus, as in the days of yore, both parties would continue, in alternate succession, to enjoy the sweets of office. But the Liberals are not such fools as to be duped after this fashion. The Tories are out, and the country will take good care to keep them out. We understand that the Carlton Club has issued its mandates to all the Tories in the House of Commons, char-rinc , them not to leave town before the 2d of, August, when it is expected that the Irish Tithe Bil will be returned in a mutilated state from the Lords. Need we say that it is the duty of all Liberal Members to remain at their posts for the same period at least ? What are the inconveniences of a few weeks' longer attendance, to the chances of the success of a plot for ousting a Liberal Administration ? We are confident that after this intimation no Liberal Member will leave town before the rising of the two Houses. In adverting to the Meeting of Claimants on the French Indemnity Fund, which yesterday took place at the British Coffee-house, we beg to refer to a very clear and interesting account of the origin and pre sent state of the claims, which appeared in The Sun of yesterday, and also to the proceedings of the Meet ing, which will be found in another part of our paper of to-day. The various acts of injustice which have for several years been exercised towards many of these Claimants are truly dreadful. 'With all our good wishes towards the present Government, we should not be doing our duty to the public, if we did not honestly express our strong reprobation of the ac cumulation, rather than the alleviation, of the grie vances of the Claimants, since they have been placed under the new Board of Commissioners. The pre sent Ministers have many obstacles to encounter in reforming abuses ; but we cannot absolve them in this instance from the arbitrary proceedings of the Trea sury Board, and the countenance given by that Board to acts of the Commissioners, which are in every re spect contrary to liberality, equity, and even of com mon justice. The invitation to the new Claimants -to bring forward their cases on the assurance that " mere lapse of time should not operate to their prejudice," and afterwards the disappointment of their hopes by the most unfair, technical objections of negligence in not presenting them earlier, is any thing but credit able to a Government professing to be liberal. W e believe that a great portion of the detail of these matters is left to be worked by the old system of machinery at the Treasury, which requires the most thorough reform. The present mode of re ferring to precedents, some of which, GOD knows, are bad enough, is most absurd ; as - is also the prac tice of referring any representation or complaint to the very party or department against whom such represen tation or complaint is made. The accused, of course, returns a partial and secret report, which too often con tains the greatest misstatement or colouring of the real facts, and on which the Treasury as often ground their decision, without the complainant having any fair means afforded him of refuting any part of such mis statement. The consequence is that any thing like justice or fair play is out of the question. We have received the whole of the Paris papers of Wednesday, together with letters and papers from Ma drid to the 6th inst. With the exception of the fol lowing telegraphic communication, their contents are unimportant :—" A telegraphic dispatch from Ba yonne announces, that on the 11th instant de plorable riots took place at Figueiras.

The populace were driven to the last degree of exasperation by false reports of treachery. Brigadier TENA, Governor of Figueiras, has fallen a victim ; he was murdered, and his body dragged through the streets. After this frightful event the dis order was repressed, and was at an end when the mail took its departure." _ _ PARTS, JULY 12. —All the Sovereigns of Europe who have been informed of the criminal attempt of the 25th of June, have already sent letters of congratulation to his Majesty. None of these letters are conceived in such polite terms as that of the Grand Duke of Baden, who writes—" That he trem bled the more at the idea of the danger to which his Majesty has been exposed, as he cannot dissemble that the preserva tion of the life of Louis Phillippe is closely connected with the safety of his own crown and that of his dominions." When M. de Gastachu presented this letter to the King, his Majesty answered that the Duke of Orleans would, in case he had fallen, have continued to support the Grand Duke of Baden and the rights of his States. The letter of congratulation of the King of Sardinia deli vered to the King by the Marquis de Bregnolle is said to be remarkable inasmuch as King Charles Albert, who has been so long hostile to the regency of the 7th of August, now la ments the late attempt the more because it has hindered the Prince from making a longer stay in his dominions, and from visiting Turin. The King of Sardinia, it is said, announces at the same time that he shall arrive in Paris in the beginning of the month of December. It is said he will pass a fortnight in Paris. PARIS, JULY 13.—Since the attempt of the 25th of June, the question has been much discussed whether the review of the National Guard should take place on the 28th of July, and whether the Triumphal Arch of L'Etoile should be inaugu rated on the same day. It seems certain that these two ques tions have been decided in the affirmative in the Council. All the objections advanced have, it is said, been removed by a will to which the majority thought it their duty to yield.— diessager, July 13. FRENCH FONDS.—PARIS, JULY 13.

AMSTERDAM, JULY 12.—Private letters from St. Peters burgh contain the following particulars :—" At the instance of some English merchants, Lord Durham, the British Am bassador, has complained of some of the obstructions thrown in the way of trade at the mouth of the Danube, and called the measures ordered on this subject presumptuous, and a vio lation of existing treaties. The measures in question have since been modified by the Russian Government, and the ob stacles complained of removed. Whether it is owing or not to the complaints of the English Ambassador, is doubtful ; but it is said that in answer to the British note, and especially with regard to the term presumptuous, it was observed on the part of Russia that the policy of England in the East deserves the name of presumptuous much more than that of Russia, its object being to obtain an influence in these countries, dangerous to the in terests of all other European nations. In particular, notice is said to have been taken on this occasion, not only of the com pelling of Mehemet Ali to give up his system of monopoly for the advantage of British commerce, but also of the opening of a new channel of communication (on the Euphrates, by means of steam-boats), with the English possessions in India, through the centre of the Ottoman dominions, which communi cation, in the opinion of Russia, is by no means intended to promote only the commercial interest of England, but also has political military objects." The Emperor of Russia was expected to set out for the Southern provinces about the middle of July. It does not ap pear that the Empress will accompany him. DUTCH FUNDS—A34sTERDAM, JULY 12. Money.

We understand that several bets have been made as to the price that Napoleon's tooth and handwriting will produce, the last named item being a confidential communication to Prince Eugene, and carried by O'Meara to that Prince from St. Helena, must, without doubt, be considered of infinite im portance, as in all probability a. similar document is not in existence. There are, besides, various other curiosities well worthy the attention of the curious in these matters, or ad mirers of Napoleon. The public view proceeds to-morrow ( Saturday), and our friend George Robins commences opera. tions on Monday, and carries them on the two following days. - - CHATEAUBRIAND'S VIEW OF ENGLISH LITE RATURE.—The Literary World, in particular, will no doubt be extremely curious to see this forthcoming new work from the pen of the wri'.er who enjoys the highest literary reputation in France. The author says in his preface, " I have visited the United States; I have lived eight years an exile in England; after residing in London as an Emigrant, I have returned thither as Ambassador. I believe that lam as thoroughly acquainted with English as a man can be with a language foreign to his own, and have read most conscientiously all that it was my duty to read on the subject discussed in these two volumes."

Letters from Paris received this morning state from Bayonne of the Bth inst., that General Gomez had eluded the Queen's General, Manso, who was pursuing him w ith a con siderable force which he united at Burgos ; as to Ge eeral Es partero, he was only at Villarcayo when General G omez had already passed Reynosa. Our arrivals this morning are the French and Du tch mane —no ship-letters received. From a New York paper of the 17th June, we copy the fol lowing : " ADJOURNMENT OF CONGRESS.—It will be seep by refe rence to the Congressional proceedings, that the H oils° has fixed upon the 4th July for the day of adjournment. There is no doubt of the concurrence of the Senate. In I , •eferring to this subject, the editor of the National lutelliglacer re marks Whatever industry may distinguish the -e sidue of the session, it is hardly possible but that much of the ibusiness now before the two Houses must remain unfinished for want of time to act upon it.' " The French indemnity claims, remarks the Commercial, were paid yesterday to the amount of 2,500,000 dollars., being 50 per cent. on the whole sum due by France. The effect on the Money Market was immediately perceptible, and the libe ral operations of the United States Bank had previously done good service, and the indemnification money came in good time to second the efforts of that institution." THE FUNDS. Yesterday was the settling day in Consols, which, passed off well. This is the settling day of the Foreign Account ; and the brokers and jobbers are chiefly occupied in arranging their differences. It is also pay day. The extreme fluctua tion during the account in Spanish Active is about 2 per cent. ; in Portuguese Stock about 2to 21 per cent. ; the difference being not to a great extent, it is expected eke ac count will pass off well. Consols opened this morning at 911 91a for the Account Ex. dividend: for Money, 91i1 3, ; Exchequer Bills, 11 13 ; India Bonds, 1 disc. 1 premium ; Bank Stock, 212 2121; India Stock, 259- 2601.

There are accounts of sanguinary disturbances at Figueras ; but no news of the least importance from the at - mies in the North of Spain. lIALt-PAST ONE.
